40% = 0.4
100 = 0.4x
250 employees

Check:
250 x 0.4 = 100

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

$695.94

Step-by-step explanation:

25% of 856 = 214

6.3% of 856 = 53.928

856 + 53.928 = 909.928

909.928 - 214 = 695.928 about 695.94

In parallelogram ABCD, base AD is 15 and side AB is 8. What are the height and area of paralelogram ABCD if mDAB is 20?

Goshia [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

✰ $\underline{ \underline{ \large{ \tt{G\: I \: V \: E \: N}}}} :$

AD = 15 , AB = 8 , $\angle$ DAB

✰ $\underline{ \underline{ \large{ \tt{T \: O \: \: F\: I \: N \: D}}}} :$

Height & Area of the given parallelogram

✰ $\underline{ \underline{ \large{ \tt{S \: O \: L \: U \: T\: I\: O \: N}}}} :$

In right angled triangle ABE :

Hypotenuse ( h ) = 8
Perpendicular ( p ) = h [ height ]
$\theta$ = 20°

Now , Using trigonometric ratio :

$\large{ \tt{Sin \theta \: = \: \frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse} }}$

Plug the known values :

⟶ $\large{ \tt{ Sin(20) = \frac{h}{8} }}$

⟶ $\large{ \tt{0.34 = \frac{h}{8}}}$

⟶ $\large{ \tt{h = 0.34 \times 8}}$

⟶ $\large{ \tt{h = 2.72}}$

Now , We have :

Base ( b ) = 15
Height ( h ) = 2.72

Finding the area of a parallelogram whose base and height are 15 and 2.72 respectively :

❀ $\underline{ \underline{ \text{Area \: of \: parallelogram = \tt{b *\: h}}}}$

⟶ $\large{ \tt{A = 15 *2.72}}$

⟶ $\large{ \tt{A = 40.8 \: {units}^{2} }}$

Hence , Our final answer :

$\large{ \boxed{ \sf{Height \: ( \: h \: ) = 2.72 \: units}}}$

$\large{ \boxed{ \sf{Area \: of \: parallelogram \: ( \:A \: ) = \: 40.8 \: {units}^{2} }}}$

Hope I helped ! ♡

Have a wonderful day / night ! ツ

Does anyone know this?

seropon [69]

Answer:

-124

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a discriminant is:

$b^{2} -4ac$

So for

$7x^{2} -4x +5=0$

a = 7 b = - 4 c = 5

Plug values into the equation.

$(-4)^{2} -4(7)(5)$

16 - 140 = -124
